Thanks for everything this weekend Patti. We had an excellent time at the Holy Smoke. Great food. Good times.

On a safety note, let your guests know what happened last weekend with the guy with the broken leg and ask what they would do if something like that happens. Also let them know that the sat phones (at least the one I carried- Globalstar) do not always works in the valleys. It was a good thing that we rode the area the day before and knew how to get to the top of the mountain already to get sat service. And for the people who have sat phones, the local emergency number is a must, as 911 will not work.

Thanks Blue Jewel
Adam
